Cliffs was also surprised that what Guo Xu used was his best technique - cross-step change!

Regarding transcendence, Americans use the word "Crossover", which can be understood as "crossover". Every confrontation on the basketball court is like a battle, and throwing away the opponent represents victory.

Guo Xu liked to hold the ball in his previous life. When he deceived his opponent with a fake move and successfully broke through, the feeling was so good! Extravagance is not only a reflection of his technical strength, but also a sense of satisfaction and vanity.

In fact, Guo Xu's cross-step was taught by Cliffs, but he didn't remember it.

Guo Xu invited Cliffs to have a luxurious meal at noon for ten consecutive days. After the meal, the two of them found a court to practice for an hour. Then Guo Xu went to exercise, and Cliffs went out to play. He was short-speakable, and Cliffs did not reserve any reservations when teaching his tricks.

Basketball enthusiasts will change their direction, simple and effective. The key to doing things depends on the details. Some details are rarely valued, and most people do their movements based on their feelings, which is wrong.

Like many people, Cliffs's change direction technology is to imitate the "little bug" Tim Hardaway.

In the early 1990s, crossover movements gradually became popular throughout the United States. Hardaway's continuous dribble under the crotch cooperated with the change of direction in front of the body, and was called "Two-Step" by fans. Lakers legend "Magic" Johnson commented: "When you face Hardaway, you hear the basketball racket making two 'bang' sounds on the ground, and he has passed by you."

There is another name for this action, "killercrossover"! In fact, it is not difficult. After dribbling under the crotch, you can connect a prerequisite change and accelerate the breakthrough, but very few people can really make this action effective. Most people just superficial imitations and do not understand the changes in the player's center of gravity and purpose.

Cliffs happened to be a person who understood the key points of this move. He guided Guo Xu that dribbling needs to be quickly passed between his hands, that is, dribbling the ball quickly with both hands. The ball should be lower than the knee and the amplitude should be greater than the outside of the knee. When doing cross-step changes, do not keep your feet parallel, otherwise the speed will slow down, so that the defender has enough time to react and miss the opportunity to break through.

When the White Team attacked, Cliffs also changed direction and relied on Guo Xu to force a layup, 14-8.

The Red Team attacked, Guo Xu led the teammates through the half, waved his hand to pull away, and challenged him one-on-one again in the middle.

"I won't let you pass again this time." Cliffs smiled confidently. He stared at Guo Xu and focused heavily.

Last round, he underestimated the enemy. Guo Xu had never beaten him like this before shaking him. This time he lowered his center of gravity and kept the distance.

Guo Xu dribbled the ball under his crotch and handed it to his right hand. Instead, he took the right foot and took a step back and pulled Cliffs two steps away, stopped and made a three-pointer, and added a little backward.

Cliffs didn't sway, but he jumped a little slower and couldn't cover it. The ball drew a wonderful arc and entered the net hollow! 17 to 8.

Step back is very popular in the future and is simple and practical. The key is that after the hand change under the crotch, the ball will no longer land, and directly pull the ball up and jump backward at the same time, pulling the distance from the defender to create space for action. This is a compulsory skill for short players.

Guo Xu suddenly used this move, but Cliffs didn't react. Coach Izo applauded Guo Xu hard on the sidelines and shouted: "Beautiful job! Keep fighting like this!"

Seeing Guo Xu scoring continuously, Cliffs became angry. He took the ball and made a foul next round, and made both free throws. The game turned into two defenders' scores.

The two sides played back and forth for another 5 minutes. Guo Xu made a sudden split and dared to take responsibility, but he was still slightly inferior to Cliffs and the score was gradually caught up.

When the players were replacing and resting, Izo praised Guo Xu and Richardson. After appearing again, Guo Xu did not disappoint the coach and his performance was still stable.

After the training match, everyone was talking about Guo Xu, but they didn't understand why he suddenly became stronger, which was completely different from yesterday.

Although no one specializes in statistics, everyone knows that Guo Xu must have won a big double-double, which is the best performer of the Red Team. The Red Team only lost 6 points in the end. The two first-year players led the team and the two fourth-year students who have already booked the NBA were very anxious, and they couldn't be over-the-top.

Assistant coach Mark Crow smiled and said to Izo: "This kid was like a rookie yesterday, but he was so powerful today. If he could play at this level every game, he would definitely be able to enter the NBA in the future. Did you get the idea of ​​scolding him?"

Izo shook his head. He was puzzled. It was beneficial to treat young players strictly, but Guo Xu looked at him with admiration and made progress too fast! Throughout the season, Guo Xu did not show such outstanding offensive talent as today.

Izo waved and called Guo Xu to his side, and smiled and said, "You are very outstanding today, this is what I want to see. I will give you more playing time tomorrow and seize the opportunity."

This is not the first time Guo Xu has heard this. He is very plain and he knows his weight.

Cliffs scored more than 30 points in the whole game, but he couldn't defend one-on-one; facing Cliffs' defense, he could not maintain efficient offense and missed five consecutive shots for a while.

Guo Xu's assists were much happier than Cliffs. His organizational ability was to be a mirror and he could always place the ball in a suitable position. It was not because of his broad vision, but because he played too many times in this practice game, and the good pass timing was kept in mind. In the semi-finals, he didn't know if he could cooperate with his teammates so well.

Guo Xu's thoughts were a bit distracted, but in Izo's opinion, it was a sign of being neither arrogant nor impatient, and he became more and more pleasing to him.

"I have a tactic suitable for you, but unfortunately I don't have time to practice it now." Izo smiled kindly. This idea has existed in his mind for a long time, but Guo Xu's ability was not up to standard before.

Guo Xu was overjoyed. "What tactics? Even if it's too late now, I can practice it in the future (next April Fool's Day)."

“It’s very simple…”

Izo talked about the tactics. He hoped that Guo Xu could run. Two insiders did not have the ball cover. He caught the ball outside the three-point line, or formed a big man who misplaced the ball and broke through the opponent, or passed the ball again.

The Spartans have been playing this tactic. The person responsible for running without the ball is Peterson. Peterson has average starting speed and ball control skills in one-on-one offense. He can only catch the ball and shoot. After 201CM height covers, he faces the opponent's inside line, and the misalignment effect is not great.

Cliffs' range is not long enough and is not suitable for playing this tactic. It is even more threatening to directly attack the ball without cover.

The two Spartans starters are both blue-collar workers, and their scoring is mainly based on the outside. Therefore, Izo has always been looking forward to Guo Xu, and he can enrich the team's tactics.

Guo Xu was so happy. This was the best news he heard after the time loop began. No matter how strong the player's personal ability is, without the right tactics and a lot of shooting rights, it is difficult to produce beautiful data. Now he has the basic conditions for the explosion.
